Attractive styling, big trunk, plenty of passenger room, handles well for a big car.
Cons
Big blind spots, unrefined power delivery, fussy stereo controls, some cheap interior bits.
What’s new
Three new colors -- Deep Lava Red, Brilliant Black Crystal and Deep Graphite -- burst onto the palette. Instead of a four-disc in-dash CD changer, you now get to insert six discs.
Edmunds says
A spacious and handsome luxury car with the moves of a sport sedan.

2002 Chrysler Concorde LXi 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 4A)
This is my second Concorde. I like its style and my previous experience with the same model and my local dealership made me hardly consider any other car. I'm never embarrassed to give someone a ride, always enjoy its comfort on long trips, yet get good enough gas mileage to drive by myself. I'll drive it to 200,000.

2003 Chrysler Concorde LX 4dr Sedan (2.7L 6cyl 4A)
I bought this car 6 years ago and was very pleased with it at first. A very nice ride and handled nicely in bad weather. For the most part, it had been a good car. Then, out of nowhere the check engine light came on and before we could get it in to the shop, the car completely died. Our mechanic told us that it was complete engine failure due to oil sludge. Keep in mind, the car doesn't … even have 90,000 miles on it yet and oil was changed regularly. I have since found out by doing some research that Chrysler vehicles with the 2.7 L engine are prone to major engine issues even at relatively low mileage due to defects in engine design. Do some research before buying!
Love it at 1st - - Then the repairs came

2002 Chrysler Concorde Limited 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 4A)
I love the car when I 1st bought it (used). It only had 59K miles on it. I thought it was a steal. Perhaps 6 months after the purchase I know why. I started hearing rumbling/throttling noise that sounded internal. Smaller garages wouldn't touch the problem. No engine lights were on. I thought Chrysler would know what it was better then anyone. They're more expensive but they would … know their car better than anyone. I had to replace the crank shaft at a cost of $3,100. I contacted Chrysler to see if they could help cover some of the cost since it only had 66K miles on it but they were no help. The dealer kept my car for 8 days with no loaner. Now the A/C is shot & the engine light is on!

2002 Chrysler Concorde Limited 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 4A)
We just bought this 2002 Limited.
WOW! Superior styling and quality
inside and out. The cavernous
interior is extemely comfortable with
fully powered, heated leather seats.
The stereo system featuring a 4
changer CD and cassette player has
plenty of power and sound seen rarely
in a factory system. The exterior is
flawless and the panels all fit
together with the … slightest gaps. The
doors, trunk, and hood close with a
soild "Thump" with no rattles or
clanks. Since we bought this car, I
have been asked by several
people, "What is that?" I believe
most had know idea that Chrysler made
such a high quality product. It feels
good "It's a Chrysler!"
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2003 Chrysler Concorde, so we've included reviews for other years of the Concorde since its last redesign.
